Building a Business as an Introvert (Yes, It’s Possible)
Do you have to be an extrovert to be a successful business owner? Absolutely not. Let's talk about the real differences between introverts and extroverts. Where they get their energy, how they show up, and why neither style is “better” when it comes to building a business. Being an introvert doesn’t mean you can’t lead, sell, or grow a profitable business. It just means you may need to stretch outside your comfort zone sometimes. You dont have to become someone you’re not. This episode is all about encouragement, practical tips, and reminding introverted business owners that your style works and you can be just as successful as anyone else. ----------------------------- DIVE IN DEEPER & LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR NUMBERS 👉 Check Out the AFFORDABLE - Know Your Business Numbers Course NEED A BOOKKEEPER? 👉 Check out BABO Bookkeeping.

Is the Customer Always Right? Let’s Be Honest

Is the Customer Always Right? Let’s Be Honest
Is the customer always right? No..... But they’re not always wrong either. Let's talk about why arguing with customers over principle usually costs you more than it’s worth. Most people aren’t trying to scam you, they just want the problem fixed. When something goes wrong, your job as a business owner is to listen, resolve the issue, and look for the lesson. Was there a breakdown in process? Were expectations unclear? Were there warning signs you ignored? Yes, there will always be a small percentage of bad actors, but don’t let the few ruin how you treat the many. Strong businesses don’t fight customers… they learn, fix, and move forward. And how you handle the problem matters just as much as the problem itself.

How I Learned to Read a Profit & Loss and Why I Teach Others

How I Learned to Read a Profit & Loss and Why I Teach Others
I was exposed to business numbers long before I ever owned a business. Profit & Loss statements, sales trends, inventory, expenses, just to name a few. These were normal conversations in my world growing up. And when I became a small business owner, that knowledge became my secret weapon. But as I started meeting other small business owners, I realized something big: they WANTED to understand their numbers… they just didn’t know where to start. Today, I share my journey with the P&L and why it quickly became my #1 tool for growing a profitable business. The truth is, small business P&Ls aren’t that different from big business P&Ls and small businesses have far more in common than you’d ever imagine. No matter what size your business is, your Profit & Loss statement is the key to understanding your money, increasing your profits, and making smarter decisions. Let’s make the P&L your new superpower. ----------------------------- DIVE IN DEEPER & LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR NUMBERS 👉 Check Out the AFFORDABLE - Know Your Business Numbers Course NEED A BOOKKEEPER? 👉 Check out BABO Bookkeeping.

You’d Never Let a Customer Not Pay You | So Why Are YOU Doing It?

You’d Never Let a Customer Not Pay You | So Why Are YOU Doing It?
If you’ve ever fallen behind on paying your employees or the people who help you, it’s time for a hard truth: you made a commitment, and not paying them damages trust, morale, and your reputation as a leader. You’d never accept a customer refusing to pay YOU — so why are you doing it in your own business? Two biggest reasons this happens: poor pricing and ongoing debt that drains every dollar before it reaches your team. You need to stop the financial bleeding, pay your people moving forward, and create a plan to make up any back pay. And when a big job comes in? That money needs to fix the business first, not line your own pockets. Strong businesses take care of their people. Let’s get you back on track. ----------------------------- DIVE IN DEEPER & LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR NUMBERS 👉 Check Out the AFFORDABLE - Know Your Business Numbers Course NEED A BOOKKEEPER? 👉 Check out BABO Bookkeeping.

Most Business Owners Do This Wrong!
Most business owners say they have goals… but what they really have is a fuzzy wish list. “I want to grow,” “I want more profit,” “I want more customers”. However, many do not have a clear plan. And if not tied to actual business numbers, those goals go nowhere. Today, we break down how to turn big dreams into real results. You’ll learn how to set at least one long-term goal, break it into monthly, weekly, and daily steps, and use your business numbers to guide your decisions. Because “just showing up” isn’t a strategy. However, taking consistent, concrete action is what moves the needle and grows your profits. Let’s make your goals actually happen. ----------------------------- DIVE IN DEEPER & LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR NUMBERS 👉 Check Out the AFFORDABLE - Know Your Business Numbers Course NEED A BOOKKEEPER? 👉 Check out BABO Bookkeeping.

Want Your Most Profitable Year Ever? Then Start with This!
Most small business owners grind day after day… and still have no idea what their real numbers are. They “guess” what their sales are, hope their profits are there, and then wonder why every year feels the same. Today, we break down why knowing your numbers is the key to breaking the cycle. You’ll learn how simple the formula really is Sales – COGS – Expenses = Profit and how it connects directly to your Profit & Loss report. Once you understand the flow of money through your business, you can finally stop repeating the same year over and over and start making smarter, more profitable decisions. Tons of sales mean nothing if there’s no profit. Make this the year you learn your numbers and drive those profits up! ----------------------------- DIVE IN DEEPER & LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR NUMBERS 👉 Check Out the AFFORDABLE - Know Your Business Numbers Course NEED A BOOKKEEPER? 👉 Check out BABO Bookkeeping.

Why Your Business Needs Retained Earnings (Like… Yesterday)
Most small business owners don’t think about retained earnings until they desperately need them. Retained earnings are your business’s safety net, growth fund, and stress reducer all rolled into one. Let's break down why retained earnings matter and how they help you prepare for upcoming purchases, cover payroll, reinvest in your business, avoid late fees, and keep your cash flow steady.
